THE FIRST STEAMER TO CROSS THE
ATLANTIC.

In 1919. the Atlantic was first
crossed by a ship using steam. This
was the Savannah, of $50 tons,
launched at Corear's Hook, New
York, August %, 1918.
She was built to ply between New
York and Savannah as sailing
packet. She was, however, purchas-
ed by Savannah merchants and fitted
with steam machinery, the paddle
wheels being constructed to fold up
and be laid upon the deck when not
in use, her shaft also having joint
for that purpose. She left Savannah
on the 26th of May and reached
Liverpool in twenty-five days, using
steam eighteen days. The log-book,
still preserved, notes several tines
taking the wheels in on deck in thirty
minutes.
In August she left Liverpool for
Cronstadt. An effort WIS made to
sell her to Ru sla, which failed. She
sa;lad fer Savannah, touching at Co.
pSlludStI dllO tAlS-OG4. tlt4I G1lIfCll
in ffty-three days. Her machinery
later was taken out and she resumed
her original character as a sailing
packet, and ended her days by being
wrecked on the South coast of Long
Island.
But steam power had by 1880
grown large enough to strike out
more boldly. The Savannah's effort
was an attempt in which steam was
only an auxiliary, and one, too, Of a
not very powerful kind. Our coast
wise steamers, as well as those EN-
ployed in Great Britain, as also the
voyage of the Enterprise to Calcutta
in 1925 (though she took 1l3 days in
doing it, had settled the possibility
of steam at sea, and the question had
now become whether a ship could be
built to cross the Atlantic depending
entirely on her steam power. 1t had
become wholly a question of fuel
consumption. The Savannah, it
may be said, used pitch-pine on her
outward voyage, and wood was for d
very long time the chief fuel for
steaming purposes in America.-E.

POWER OF SUNSHINE.

In recent number Of the Chan-
taatqa.an there is an interesting article
by Charles Barnard: in which he
shows that the great star which we
call the sun is literally the stove that
keeps the whole world warm. In
conclusion he gives the following
curious facts:
Heat expands and cold contracts,
and everything warmed by the sun
expands under its gentle heat. Every
rail on all our railroads expands and
grows perceptibly longer in bright
sunshine, and contracts and grows
shorter whenever a cloud cuts off the
heat, or the earth in turning moves
away from the sun. So it is found
Necessary to leave a little space be-
tween every rail wherein it cal
stretch itself in hot Summer days.
Were all the rails pushed close
together in laying the track, the first
day of hot sunshine would pull the
track to pieces, or render it so ureven
chat it could not be used. Every
iron bridge stretches in the sunlight,
and would tear itself to pieces were
it not carefully adjusted for this ex-
pansion in the sun and given a
chance to freely move on its founda-
tons wherever the warm fingers OF
the sunshine are laid upon it.
Brooklyn Bridge is in four distinct
pieces, with plenty Of room between
to move, and it does move every day.
In warm sunshine it is longer by sew
era! inches than on a cold night.
The cables of the bridge are contin-
uous, but the expansion caused by
heat lengthens the cables, and they
let the bridge sink two or three feet
in the middle. Even a passing
cloud, hiding the sun for few mo-
merits, will cause the entire bridge to
rise in the middle by cooling and
contracting the cables. | have per
sonally measured the movement OF
Brook lyn Bridge on a hot Summers
day, between bright sunshine and
the shade caused by clouds, and have
seen that it moved over one inch in
less than two hours. In building the
great bronze Liberty in New York
harbor the same thing had to be
guarded against, and provision is
made to allow the whole vast figure
to move under the expansion caused
by the heat of the sun. The move
ment, owing to the irregular surface
of the statue, is not visible, as in the
Brooklyn Bridge, yet it is there.
Even Bunker Hill Monument, which
is built wholly of stone, is distorted
out of shape every day by the sun,
though the movement cannot be
proved except by certain experiments
made for the purpose.
What will finally become of our
stellar stove no nan can positively
say; yet tjadging from what we know
already, it is quite possible that it is
already burning out. When its fires
finally die down theend Of our planet
is at hand, and all life here will
slowly, or suddenly, perhaps, become
extinct by freezing, and our planet
will meet its end as a dead star
swinging through the awful cold OF
the stellar spaces. People of fervid
imagination have thought the world
would come to an end in general
sconfagration. It is much more
EliFely our stellar stove will 90 out
ar. the world will calmly freeze up.
Of the two methods offending earthly
history the latter will be evidently
the more comfortable.

Mr.. Seyere's Lecture.

The lecture by Mr.. Severe, the
African, at the Presbyterian church
on Friday night of last week, was
very different from others heard in
this country. His statements were
all readily taken as true, coming
from native African, educated in
America and recently engaged in the
missionary work in his native country,
He says they need as emigrants to
Africa, none but educated, christian
missionaries They want no gold
hunting, rum selling, lazy, ignorant,
immoral people there from this or
any other country. They prove
greater stumbling-blocks to chris
tianity that the native heather. They
want money to give better pay to the
good christian workers over there
and they want us to see that men and
women have trained minds and train
cd hands and live perfect upright lives
at home before they are sent there to
civilize and christianizc the heather.
Mr.. Severe is not an eloquent
speaker, but he has forciblc way
of putting facts and his lecture was
interesting and instructive. lie said
nothing disparaging of the great
wealth of his country and the good
to be done by missionaries in civiliz-
ing and outstanding Africa, but
dwelt upon the mistakes of the board
of missions. Upon the whole we
agree with Mr.. Severe. We have
never thought we'll of en- masse emf
grafton of an illiterate and poor peo-
pie. and especially to Africa. We
don't think the majority of people
who 60 from this country to Africa
do themselves or the Africans any
good. As Mr.. Severe says, let only
those 60 who are prepared to bring
about higher moral, religious and
intellectual condition of our people
here and in Africa.
The great mass of our people is
only semi-civilized and unprepared to
become educators either by precept or
example. Our people need to stay
in this country and get all the bene-
fits possible from those of superior
advantages, and go from one part of
this country to another if need be,
but let only the select and prepared
go to Africa. Let us remain in this
our country and be more liberal in
contributing our means to carry on
the work in Africa That is our
part Of the work.
